Wound healing to Yellow-white'ish scab

2024-07-18 02:27:35
I had an accident last week, i got treated at a hospital, now the wound is healing, but there is a layer of white'ish yellow covering on it which i have never seen like before.. I was prescribed an antibiotic and a painkiller... Googling it gave some very scary results! Is it normal? Should i visit hospital again?? Please help in getting some clarity! Many thanks!
